---
Makefile.in
- quote value of ${INSTALL_DATA} when passing it to makes in
subdirectories
7/1

- don't pass INSTALL_DATA to a make in the `doc' subdirectory; let
autoconf set the value itself in the Makefile
- removed a stray `-' before $(RANLIB) in the `install' recipe
doc/Makefile.in
- add a VPATH assignment so the documentation is not remade if it's
already up-to-date in the distribution
configure.in
- call AC_SUBST(LOCAL_LDFLAGS), since Makefile.in contains
@LOCAL_LDFLAGS@
7/9
---
config.h.in
- add define lines for STRUCT_WINSIZE_IN_SYS_IOCTL and
STRUCT_WINSIZE_IN_TERMIOS
configure.in
- call BASH_STRUCT_WINSIZE to look for the definition of
`struct winsize'

- add define line for AC_MINIX
7/18

to libhistory.old right after installing it
4/27
----
doc/Makefile.in
- install {readline,history}.info out of the source directory if
they are not found in the current (build) directory -- only an
issue if the libraries are built in a different directory than
the source directory
5/1
---
support/shobj-conf
- script from the bash distribution to do shared object and library
configuration
shlib/Makefile.in
- new directory and makefile to handle building shared versions of

[THERE ARE NO MORE #ifdef SHELL LINES IN ANY OF THE SOURCE FILES.]
Makefile.in

installed shared libraries
6/5
---
rlstdc.h
- new file
Makefile.in
- rlstdc.h is now one of the installed headers
8/3
---
shlib/Makefile.in
- made the suffix rule that creates xx.so from xx.c write the
compiler output to `a.o', which is then mv'd to xx.so, because
some compilers (Sun WSpro 4.2, for example) don't allow any
suffixes other than `.o' for `cc -c' (not even `a.out')
9/15
----
Makefile.in
- AR and ARFLAGS are now substituted by configure, used in recipes

shlib/Makefile.in
- SHOBJ_XLDFLAGS and SHLIB_LIBS are now substituted by configure
- add $(SHLIB_LIBS) at end of command line that builds the shared
libraries (currently needed only by AIX 4.2)
12/31

- the TOC html files are no longer generated and no longer part of
the distribution
2/18/1999

files are no longer created
examples/Makefile.in
- remove `*.exe' in clean target for MS-DOS
Makefile.in
- make `readline' target depend on ./libreadline.a
- configure now substitutes TERMCAP_LIB into Makefile.in

- add dependencies on rlprivate.h
4/13
----
doc/Makefile.in
- add variable, PSDVI, which is the desired resolution of the
generated postscript files. Set to 300 because I don't have
any 600-dpi printers
- set LANGUAGE= before calling makeinfo, so messages are in English
- add rluserman.{info,dvi,ps,html} to appropriate variables
- add rules to create rluserman.{info,dvi,ps,html}
- install and uninstall rluserman.info, but don't update the directory
file in $(infodir) yet

5/5
---
support/shlib-install
- OSF/1 installs shared libraries like Solaris
Makefile.in
- broke the header file install and uninstall into two new targets:
install-headers and uninstall-headers
- install and uninstall depend on install-headers and uninstall-headers
respectively
- changed install-shared and uninstall-shared targets to depend on
install-headers and uninstall-headers, respectively, so users may
choose to install only the shared libraries. I'm not sure about
the uninstall one yet -- maybe it should check whether or not
the static libraries are installed and not remove the header files
if they are
9/3
---
configure.in, config.h.in

- changed version to 4.1-beta1

8/30
----

only the major version number. If it includes the minor version,
programs depending on it must be rebuilt (which may or may not be
a bad thing)

- add -l option to log input and output (-a option appends to logfile)

linux and BSD/OS 4.x will have an soname that does not include
the minor version number
11/13
-----
examples/rlfe.c
- rlfe can perform filename completion for relative pathnames in the
inferior process's context if the OS supports /proc/PID/cwd (linux
does it OK, Solaris is slightly warped, none of the BSDs have it)
